Hi,
We're experimenting with freeradius for authenticating users in a custom
application. It was straightforward to get this authenticating against
the OS:
DEFAULT Auth-Type = System
But what we want to do is maintain a list of usernames and crypt
passwords in an external file, separate to the operating system users.
The rlm_passwd module should do what we want but I'm having some trouble
getting it to work.
In the radiusd.conf modules section I have:
passwd our_passwd {
filename = /tmp/testpwd
format = "*User-Name:Crypt-Password"
hashsize = 100
ignorenislike = no
allowmultiplekeys = no
}
In sites-enabled/default I added "our_passwd" to the authorize section.
I think that part is essentially working and on my random walks running
freeradius -X it looks like it is reading our passwd file okay. The
thing I do not understand is what to put as the Auth-Type in the users
file in order to authenticate against our file rather than against the OS?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
